With the words of the hairpin, the next mural is easy to understand.

The next few paintings seem to be designed to corroborate the Hairpin Star's statement. After the serpent witch settled here, more and more people came to trade with her with all kinds of things. For example, a calf born to a cow in the family is offered in exchange for a good crop the next year. There are also young daughters who give snake witches their precious bracelets, praying that they can marry a wishful husband in the coming year.

The snake witch seemed to come and did not refuse, and exchanged everything from the eggs of the poor to the gold and silver of the rich and noble. Everything is equal to the deal, and both sides are happy.

Tian Fangfang touched her chin: "This holy daughter of the snake witch clan seems to have some ability. ”

Hairpin said: "It's not necessarily a good thing. ”

"What do you mean?" Mendong asked.

Gu Baiying stared at the mural on the wall and said lightly: "People are greedy, and if they act like this, I am afraid that they will cause trouble." ”

Mu Jiexiao pointed to the painting in front of him and said, "Look at the back." ”

After drawing a few pictures of such various transactions, the picture changed again. A man who looked like a wealthy merchant stood in front of the snake witch, with all kinds of precious jewels in the chest in front of him, and he pointed to another person in the distance, looking very angry, and holding a knife in his hand.

"This is ......" Meng Ying said hesitantly: "Do you want the snake witch to harvest human lives for him?" ”

Hairpin Xing's heart sank.

Sure enough, in the end, the equivalent exchange will always give some wicked people an opportunity to take advantage of. It is inevitable that it will not be used by people with intentions. At first, I just wanted my family's illness to get better, I wanted the crops to grow better, and I wanted to marry a wishful husband, but later, it may have become a person's life, his whole family was unlucky, and all the people who were better than him disappeared......

There is good and evil in human nature, and greed can never stand the test.

"The snake witch seems to have refused." Tian Fangfang said.

The hairpin continued to look at the mural, and sure enough, in this picture, the snake witch did not seem to agree to the person's request. The man went back unwillingly with the silver and gold.

The Serpent Witch didn't agree to any deal, some agreed, others refused. It seems that the only person who can make a deal with her is the trader herself, such as "what should I do". And if she wants to pay for someone else's change, such as "how do I want him", she ignores it.

"This snake witch knows it very well." Tian Fangfang admired.

Hairpin shook his head: "It's too late." ”

The next mural was scribbled, as if it had been painted in a hurry. The serpent witch seemed to be weakened, and sat on a high seat, and someone came to her with gold and silver. When the snake witch turned, the man pounced on her from behind and stabbed her in the back of the heart.

Hairpin star's eyes widened.

The snake witch fell, and many people poured in, and they took the snake staff from the snake witch's hand, and the picture was painted here, and it was almost impossible to see clearly, and then it was gone.

After all the murals were finished, the crowd fell silent.

This story is not difficult to guess, the holy daughter of the snake witch clan protects the civilians of Wufan City, the commoners worship melons and fruits, and the snake witch protects the safety of the civilians and helps them expel the evil monsters. The snake witch has a snake staff, which seems to contain spiritual powers, which can help people achieve their wishes. The snake witch and the commoners used this snake staff to make a deal, but the hearts of the people were greedy, the commoners were no longer satisfied with their small wishes, they wanted more and more, and in the end, the unsatisfied desires killed the snake witch together and snatched her snake staff.

"Is this what happened here before?" Meng Ying pondered for a while: "According to the records on the mural, the snake witch died at the hands of the civilians of Wufan City back then. And what about the saint we saw earlier? ”

"There are two possibilities," Gu Baiying brushed his fingers over the mural, and lowered his eyes: "There is not only one saint in Wufan City, but there is also a possibility, the snake witch back then has become a demon. ”

"That's right!" Tian Fangfang slapped her face: "Die in the hands of protected civilians, if I am this snake witch, I will not be reconciled, maybe she will leave a curse like this, and turn the entire Wufan City into a demon condensed by demonic energy." Therefore, the Wufan City we see during the day will be different from the Wufan City we see at night. ”

"A monster condensed by demonic energy?" Mu Jiexiao was puzzled.

Tian Fangfang looked at the hairpin: "Isn't that the demon mound that Senior Sister encountered in the Sumeru mustard seed diagram earlier is like this?" ”

Hairpin couldn't help but shudder: "Why are you so scary?" ”

Tian Fangfang was about to speak, and suddenly heard Mimi in the corner suddenly let out a scream, Hairpin Xing was startled, and looked at Mimi, Mimi jumped on her shoulder at once, and now the Qiankun bag can't be opened, and it is impossible for this fat cat to go back to the Qiankun bag to be lazy.

Mu Jiexiao's face froze: "Why is there so much sand on the ground?" ”

The floor of the temple was originally paved with extraordinarily smooth polished stones, and the top was finely carved with dense patterns, but now it has been covered with a thin layer of yellow sand.

"I didn't come here just now," Mendong tugged at the corner of Gu Baiying's clothes: "This sand shouldn't go up by itself, right?" ”

Gu Baiying was stunned for a moment, her face suddenly changed, and she said, "No, it's not the sand that is spilling up, it's that this altar is sinking!" ”

As soon as he had finished saying this, the whole temple jerked to the left, as if it had become a boxy stone, and had been thrown into the dry swamp, slowly sinking in an irresistible manner.

Meng Ying ran to the door of the temple, pushed hard, and turned around and said, "Uncle Shi, the door is locked and can't be opened!" ”

When they entered the temple, they did not feel anyone's breath, nor did they perceive anyone coming, but the door of the main hall was silently shut.

"There's something wrong with this altar." Gu Baiying said coldly: "The ground is sinking faster and faster, run to it!" ”

The whole hall seems to be completely overturned, and it is sinking into the depths of the heart of death little by little, and the temple has a step up, if you don't want to die here in no apparent way, this is the only way to live. Hairpin Xing followed behind Gu Baiying, and only ran two steps, when he suddenly felt a violent shaking under his feet, and with a "boom", the tall stone pillar in the middle of the temple suddenly smashed down from the middle, smashing the entire hundred jade steps into two sections.

Meng Ying, Tian Fangfang, Mu Jiexiao and Men Dong were on the top of the steps, and when they saw this scene, they quickly jumped into the corridor upstairs, the hairpin ran slowly, and after Gu Baiying's mat, the two of them were separated by Sheng Sheng at the other end of the steps. It's impossible to climb up.

"Uncle Shi!" Mendong screamed.

"Keep going up, leave me alone." Gu Baiying said coldly, turned around and grabbed Hairpin Xing's arm: "Go this way!" ”
